Static site / hand-coded HTML

Drop the post HTML into your site exactly as written. No CMS, no surprises.

Steps

  1. Create a new file at /blog/.html (the slug comes from the submit page).
  2. Wrap the body HTML in your site's standard layout (header, footer).
  3. Set <title> and <meta name="description"> from the submit page.
  4. Add the article to your blog index page.
  5. Commit and deploy (Vercel / Netlify / Cloudflare Pages / your CI of choice).
  6. Once live, copy the URL and paste it into the RankGoat submit page.
